Ministry of Health and Welfare Opens Applications for Health-Friendly Company Certification... Until the 7th of Next Month

The Ministry of Health and Welfare and the Korea Health Promotion Institute announced on the 13th that they will accept applications for the '2023 Health-Friendly Company Certification' until the 7th of next month to certify and support companies striving to promote health in the workplace.

Health-Friendly Company

A health-friendly company refers to a company that creates a health-friendly culture and environment in the workplace and helps employees manage their health. Through the first project last year, 14 companies were certified as health-friendly companies.

From the 14th, an online briefing session on health-friendly companies will be held. On the Health-Friendly Company Certification System website, you can check the overview of the system, explanations of evaluation indicators, and application methods through videos.

Applications and registrations for certification will be accepted simultaneously with the briefing session. Also, considering that the system is in its early stages, the certification application fee will be waived.

Companies that apply will undergo certification evaluation in four areas: health-friendly management, health-friendly culture, health-friendly activities, and employee satisfaction.

Certified companies will receive a certificate and a certification plaque. Additionally, promotion of certified companies will be conducted through various channels such as employment portal sites.

Consulting for workplace environment improvement and employee satisfaction enhancement, as well as workplace education programs, will be preferentially provided to certified companies. Furthermore, benefits available to certified companies will be continuously developed and announced.
